Pirates: Rush to the Peak

"Look up."

Luo was a little confused about what Cloe said, but he still raised his head obediently.

The dark cloud sky was suddenly pierced by a black spot, which then grew larger and larger. Clo's figure fell from the sky, and his speed was so fast that he suddenly disappeared halfway through his descent.

"captain!"

"I saw."

Bebo pointed to the sky and shouted, and Luo responded in a deep voice.

"Whoosh!!!"

There was a sound of breaking air, and Cloe appeared behind Luo, with his devil wings spread out, looking very evil.

"Captain Crowe!"

"Haha, long time no see, Shaqi and Peiqin."

Chloe greeted the two with a smile, while folding his wings behind his back.

"Where did Wano go?"

"I have been sent to the sky by Shiki-senpai's fruit power."

"Why send Wano Country to the sky?"

"The previous attack shattered the ocean, causing the sea level to inexplicably rise. We had no choice but to lift the island into the sky."

Clo walked to Luo's side and said as he looked at the deep pit in the distance that was constantly swallowing up the sea water.

"That's really an exaggerated power."

Luo said this with a serious expression. Clo patted him on the shoulder and then looked at Luo with a serious expression.

"I'll leave the captain's affairs to you."

"I will do everything in my power to locate him if he is in the sea."

Law still believed that Kuro was no longer in the sea. After all, considering the restraint of the sea on the devil fruit, it was impossible for the sea water to keep him alive in the sea.

Clo nodded, told him about the underwater turbulence, pointed out the approximate location where they were going to search, and then ordered the crew to prepare to dive.

Clo spread his wings and flew into the air, looking down as the submarine sank into the water.

The Heart Pirates began their search for someone on the bottom of the sea, and their target was now on the deck of Pluto, slowly opening his eyes and looking at the dark sea with a dull expression.

Yuri on the opposite side leaned against the hull with his eyes closed with a hopeless look on his face. He was used to the pain in his body, but he was not used to the hunger in his stomach.

“Gugu~~”

There was another hungry cry and Yuri sighed.

"Stop yelling. Don't I know whether you are hungry or not? I can't do anything even if you yell."

Yuri still had his eyes closed, but this time the expression on his face turned into helplessness. He felt that he might as well be killed by the laser attack directly, so that he would not experience the feeling of starving to death.

“Gugu~~”

Another hungry cry, Yuri opened his eyes, annoyed by it.

"Do you really want me to hate you? Yell, yell, yell!"

Yuri patted his stomach angrily, and suddenly looked ahead and saw Kuro with his eyes open.

When Yuri saw Kuro waking up, he was excited at first, but then when he thought of Lingzhi's death, he couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart.

"Blood, blood, blood, Mr. Bloody Blade, I wish to talk to you about this matter of laser attacks."

Yuri's eyes never left Kuro's face. He was ready to run away immediately if he saw Kuro show any sign of anger. Of course, the prerequisite was that he could run away with one hand.

When he finished shouting, Kuro still lay there motionless, as if he didn't hear Yuri's voice.

Seeing this, Yuri shouted again with an attitude of giving it a try.

"Mr. Bloody Blade? Can you hear me?"

After shouting, he stared at Kuro nervously, but Kuro still didn't react at all.

Yuri was full of doubts about this, not knowing that at this moment Kuro's consciousness was blocked due to the continuous severe pain.

And precisely because of this, he is now in a complete vegetative state, but because his mental strength is very strong, he can now clearly perceive everything in the outside world.

"Damn it, the owner of that attack should be the King. If I hadn't wanted to protect those researchers on Cloud Island, I should have used the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit to resist."

Kuro's mental simulation of a little man appeared in his mind, sitting cross-legged in the air with his arms folded, with a regretful expression on his face, thinking about what moves he could use to neutralize the power of the laser attack.

"Alas, it's too late to say anything now. I just want to know what happened to me now? Did I become a ghost after death?"

Kuro looked down at his humanoid body with a very complicated expression.

Just when Kuro was about to accept that he had become a ghost, a bloody little snake suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Master, what's going on with you?"

"Budu Yuhun? You're dead too?"

When Kuro saw him appear, he suddenly felt a little sorry for this guy, who died suddenly with him. Of course, this guy was not originally a living being, but a soul-like body formed after absorbing Homitz's energy.

"Who died? Me?"

Budu Yuhun stretched out his little hand and pointed at his face in surprise. When did he die?

"Yes, otherwise why would you come to Huangquan to find me."

"What Yellow Spring? Master, this is your spiritual world, not the Yellow Spring."

When Kuro heard this, his sadness disappeared instantly and he looked at Budu Yuhun with a serious face.

"Spirit world? Will my spiritual world make me a villain?"

As Kuro said this, he also showed his current Q-like image. After seeing this, Budu Yuhun covered his mouth and laughed.

"Master is really your spiritual world. Your current injuries are too severe. I had no choice but to squeeze out the soul essence of that old woman and throw it to you. You may have become like this because of the soul essence."

After listening to Budu Yuhun's explanation, Kuro suddenly understood.

"So I'm not dead?"

"Of course not. You were just too badly injured. In order to prevent your consciousness from collapsing, your body forced it into a dormant state. But perhaps due to the effect of your soul essence, your mental power was condensed, forming its current form. When your consciousness awakens, this spiritual body should be integrated with your consciousness."

Budu Yuhun grabbed the dragon whiskers on his face and talked calmly. After listening, Kuro nodded silently. Although he didn't understand much, he felt like he was saved by Budu Yuhun.
